I'm sure anyone who has taken a college history class knows of its existence, but that doesn't mean a whole lot.I'm under the assumption that we only need a general knowledge to participate in these games. Not all of us graduated college with degrees in history.

What did you think the German Confederation was, then? A customs union? You honestly didn't believe that it had anything to do with war or the defence of the member-states? You, the person who was portraying the Emperor of the German Confederation, did not believe that the states of the German confederation had any obligation not to declare war on each other on a whim?
